If this is OK, I'll post this nice press statement on various lists :-).
Does somebody else have feedbacks on this?
-- Debian-Edu/Skolelinux 2.0 ready for free use!
After twenty-one months of development, Skolelinux has released
a new version. Skolelinux, the Debian-edu project's Custom Debian
Distribution, is installed in hundreds of schools in Norway, Germany,
and other countries. Many municipalities use Skolelinux across all of
their schools; such centralized operation offers low maintenance and
operational costs. Skolelinux is free and open source software, and
for those schools that need assistance, many commercial organizations
offer maintenance and support solutions.
The new version of Skolelinux offers recent versions of popular
programs such as OpenOffice, Mozilla Firefox, and GCompris -- all in
many languages. A wide variety of educational software is also
available. Thin client support has been improved, and it is now
possible to install half-thick clients. Half-thick clients allow for
full use of newer hardware, offering support for CD/DVD-ROM, USB-pen,
and audio devices. Since all software is distributed from the
Skolelinux servers, maintenance costs on half-thick clients are still
kept low.
